Diabetes!!! |

I've had a bit of a turn with my diabetes, fabulously under control for almost a year. I've been under a huge amoung of stress for a few months (biz related) and Ive not been eating properly. Many times not eating a meal until after 1 or 2 pm...me bad!
I've now noticed alot of numbness in my feet, Im guessing the high sugar levels have chewed away at some nerves and also effected circulation. I take Omega 3's and a teaspoon of cinnomon w/ water every morning any other suggetions? Bit nervy (pardon the pun), but I seem to following the same path as my father did with the disease..no ulcers yet on feet...hoping I caught the high levels soon enough Saturday I tested at 460 EEEEEK! Gee why were my eyes blurring! Today Im down to 280 (blood sugar not wieght..LOL)
Any suggestions appreciated on the board!

Exercise often, eat a modified diabetic diet & stay within the normal weight range for your height. D II is preventable & treatable.

Now I never add any sugar or sugar substitute to my food. Just the thought of the type of complications that diabetes leads to keeps me on course. > >A healthier life, w/o undo complications, is worth the effort if you really think about it. > >Take care, > >Joe Severa (MannaSage) >Synergy Worldwide > > > > > >> Monique Bileski wrote: >> Hi Kathy, >> >>Cooking vegetables in general will remove nutrients.

My husband's family has a history of diabetes so I'm doing my share to educate myself and prevent. Have you heard of stevia? There is quite a bit of information on the internet about it. I made some healthy cookies using stevia and Maple syrop. My son loved them. I thought you might find it interesting. Stevia is only classified as a dietary supplement at this point in the States. >> >>Yours in health, >>Monique Bileski >> >> Private Reply to Kathy Buck (new win) |
